A Qatar Airways Cargo Boeing 777-200F suffered substantial wing damage after colliding with a light pole at Chicago-O'Hare International Airport (ORD) in the United States.
The incident occurred on August 5, 2022, as the aircraft, registered A7-BFH, had carried out flight QR8141 from Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport (ATL) to Chicago. While taxiing after landing on runway 10C, the right wing of the aircraft crashed into the pole.
